 HDMI Splitters enable you to stream High-Definition 

Multimedia Interface (HDMI) signals from a single source to multiple 
screens and create impressive high-definition presentations. 

The source of your video can be an HD DVD player, D-VHS player, 

satellite receiver, digital recorder, or other type of HDMI equipment,  
or a PC with a DVI connector. And, on the output side, you can use 
two or four high-definition plasma, LCD, or similar screens. 

The splitters buffer the digital signal so uncompressed HD video 

and multichannel audio are reproduced without any loss. They also 
feature 1.65-Gbps bandwidth for transmitting HDMI signals in their 
entirety error-free. 

The HDMI Splitters are ideal for trade shows, conference rooms, 

training rooms, and home theater setups. Plus, they’re a great choice 
for splitting signals in retail applications where you want to keep 
source equipment in a secure area. You can even cascade multiple 
units up to three levels to output HDMI video/audio to additional 
displays in widely distributed applications. 

They also support HDTV resolutions up to 1080i and 1080p  

and feature a compact design for use in crowded equipment rooms 
and A/V cabinets.
